“American Horror Story: Coven,” the third season of the creepy FX drama currently shooting in New Orleans for an October premiere, has released its first teaser-trailer. Set to the lyrics of “House of the Rising Sun,” the very short clip, see below, doesn’t reveal much beyond the season’s setting and that the show will be, well, creepy.

Or will it?

Ryan Murphy, co-creator and executive producer, revealed during a recent Emmy Awards event in Los Angeles that the season will be frothy, fun.

"It's much more buoyant and comedic and crafty than last season, which was much darker by design because it was about heavy social stuff," he said, then laughed, according to Denise Martin @ Vulture.com. "[Frances Conroy] plays Jessica's rival from high school times."

Martin, who moderated the panel discussion, also reported this semi-breaking tidbit about the season, as revealed by Murphy:

"It really is about the witches of Salem pitted against voodoo witches," he continued. "It's been a centuries-long feud and it's up to Jessica Lange and Angela Bassett to mend the fence."
